Brno Is the Place for Corporate Events

In short: Brno offers the halls of the Old Town Hall, hotels downtown and by the Brno Reservoir, and an outdoor Treasure Hunt right through the historic center.

Guests staying by the reservoir or at the Courtyard by Marriott have Prýgl Hunt or a walk along the riverfront within easy reach. Teams that want to head outside Brno can reach the Moravian Karst and South Moravia just as easily.

Brno is the place for a corporate event your team will actually remember. Looking for a space for a conference, a party, or a team building day and not sure where to take your colleagues? Corporate events in Brno have one big advantage: the historic center, the river, and offbeat venues all sit a few minutes apart.

The city is easy to reach from Prague, Vienna, and Bratislava, so you can bring in colleagues from other offices without a hitch.

We're based in Brno and we've been running events here for years, so we know where things work and where you'd mostly be paying for the address. Let's walk through the spots that suit a corporate event in Brno, and for each one talk about what to keep in mind.

The Old Town Hall

Right in the heart of Brno, inside the historic Old Town Hall building, you'll find the Brno City Council Club. It's a distinguished address, the kind where guests immediately see you didn't cut corners on the prep. History and modern comfort meet here without one overpowering the other.

The spaces adapt to almost any event, from an intimate meeting to a formal evening. You can pick a cozy salon or a bigger hall, depending on who and how many people you're inviting. Technical facilities and catering are arranged by agreement, so you don't have to haul anything in yourself.

One more practical plus: the building offers easy access by public transit and parking nearby, so colleagues from surrounding companies arrive without wandering around lost. And when the venue is downtown, you can stretch the program into the evening and move smoothly on to dinner somewhere close.

Where to Stay in Brno

Besides the Old Town Hall, companies often need lodging for the whole team. Hotel Passage is a popular choice downtown. By the Brno Reservoir, Orea Resort Santon and Maximus Resort both offer lodging surrounded by nature, with facilities that suit a Prýgl Hunt starting right at the hotel door.

The Riverfront for Courtyard Guests

The riverfront also works as a starting point for a Treasure Hunt with any story mode, especially if the team is staying nearby at the Courtyard by Marriott Brno. The route can run along the riverbank or straight into the historic center. For hotel guests, it's the shortest path to a team program, no crossing town required.

The Observatory and Planetarium

Brno does unconventional backdrops too. One of our corporate events took place in the beautiful spaces of the Brno Observatory and Planetarium, where even a dry presentation takes on a whole new pace. The digital dome gives a corporate program a dimension you won't get in an ordinary conference room.

An unusual space has a practical effect too. People open up more easily sitting under a starry dome than at a table with a laptop. For a strategy session or a year-end results announcement, it's a setting that lends even a routine program a sense of occasion.

Team Building Nearby

Besides Hotel Atlantis by the reservoir, other outdoor locations mean heading out of Brno, to South Moravia or the Moravian Karst.

In South Moravia, there's Lednice Park and Castle Garden, a UNESCO site, plus Valtice or Zaječí with the Vinařství U Kapličky winery. In Mikulov, Lednice, Valtice, and Pálava, we also have our own Treasure Hunt ready for clients.

In the Moravian Karst, around Sloup and Skalní mlýn, there's the Secrets of Moravian Karst program: a boat ride through the Punkva Caves and ciphers around the Macocha Abyss.

By Type of Event

Before you start calling around to venues, get clear on the type of event. From there, the venue almost picks itself. The most common situations look like this.

• A formal conference or training calls for a distinguished hall downtown, technology on hand, and quiet for the sessions.
• A company party or reception needs a space with atmosphere, where people mingle naturally instead of staying seated in rows.
• Active team building calls for an outdoor location or an unusual space where the team shares an experience together.
• A casual summer get-together works with the riverfront or a garden, food off the grill, and no jacket required.

For a Christmas party in Brno, there's no need to take anyone out of town. We're based here, and we bring our corporate Christmas party programs for groups of 5 to 500 to any hall or hotel in this article, or straight to your office. You can pick hands-on workshops, competitive table games, a mobile escape game, or a themed party like Don Maccarone or the Oktoberfest Party. Our hosts and instructors run programs in English as well as Czech.

Programs for Brno

In Brno, we run two location-specific games: Treasure Hunt Brno through the historic center past landmarks like the astronomical clock on Freedom Square, Špilberk Castle, and the statue of Jošt, and Prýgl Hunt by the Brno Reservoir for guests of the hotels there, running around the marina and both shores of the reservoir.

There are also story-mode variants of the Treasure Hunt, like Amazing Race, Zombie Apocalypse, Sherlock Holmes Cases, or Pirates of the Pacific. We set them up around the client's hotel or downtown, whichever works better for you.

The only venue in Brno with outdoor space is Hotel Atlantis above the Brno Reservoir, where you can also run larger outdoor programs like Indiana and the Holy Grail or Sherlock Strikes Back.

When the weather or the program calls for walls instead of the street, a mobile Escape Box, an escape game with no room of its own, works anywhere in Brno.
